Kai the horse

Since the beginning of May we are leasing this beautiful 25 years old boy.

His name his Kai (it means Ocean in Hawaiian) and he is part Quarter Horse and part Arabian. He is a sweet guy with a lot of personality!!! A lot!!
He did some dressage when he was young and won ribbons. Later he also played polo. Kai loves parade too.
His owner is working a lot and doesn't have much time to see him. So at the end I am going almost everyday and take care of him; grooming, feeding, riding, working, massaging. He is part of the family now:)

Kai is staying at No Ka'Oi with other horses. He is part of a little herd:)

But he also likes his lonely time, grazing in beautiful Kula...

One of Kai's characteristic is that he's got a blue eye. Very pretty.

One of his favorite thing is having his alfalfa soup ;) hmmm yummy...

Sometimes we just go for a walk and I let him graze some more .

He is friend with the chicken too:)

Sweet Kai

Little trip to Lahaina

When you live upcountry you usually don't go very often to the west side of the island, at least we don't.
But sometimes ... like when we need to meet a guy with the same boat as ours ... we go the the west side and enjoy being a tourist for a couple of hours:)

On the way to Lahaina, the beautiful West Maui Mountain.

 I love this cute little church on Front street.

Kamehameha Iki Park.
